how they want
Really? That's nice.
Reserving a right to do what ever i want for the next 10 years.
Thank You
as for the feedback thing - really? you have 3 transactions with me - 2 of them in the past 60 days. I leave feedback after several transactions and time have elapsed. Now I am forced to leave feedback based on your time line preference? I don't think so.
YES REALLY
imagine that you would give that reply to someone who would be asking "did Stack really bought those cards from you 2-3 years ago"
Let's pretend what you see i have not bought from you. And lets pretend i have a perfect provenance of how i acquired these items/cards. Really helps me as collector. Thanks
"after several transactions and time have elapsed" WTF? Nobody is going to marry you. You are rating actual trade, not picking your life partner dude. What if new people see that you rated old member "paid on time" , what the f*ck is that mean? is that mean that newbie paid "not on time" or what is EXACT reason of why newbie was not rated of making a successful trade? What do you think the feedback is actually for? is it for "life" ? Feedback in the trade is a provenance that the goods were achieved by the successful trade, nothing else. YOU ARE NOT GRANTING THE PERSON WITH YOUR LIFE. You only saying that "he paid" , because you know why? BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING ELSE BUYER HAS TO DO - JUST PAY.
Or do you think you are responsible for someones actions , and if yes, point me to someone who took full responsibility for another person just because they had feeback to him on a random trade .
All feedback system is true monarchy scheme. Not rating the others means less opponents to have for yourself, less , members of higher ranking or less chance for yourself to be eliminated from DT. we are not idiots, again.
"your time line preference" - You could have died in those 2-3 years. Let's be realistic. And yet i am happy collector waiting for the "receipt" that i did that trade and i paid on time or at least that i paid/bought at all. I can bet if the DT member would be buying from you for the first time he would be rated in few minutes after the payment. This is a light version of "buying back" the feedback.
So let me ask you yourself: Really?
All or none, should be the right mindset. Sadly you don't have such.
I wish next time when you will be buying groceries and willing to get the receipt they would tell you "Sorry ser we give receipt only after several transactions and time have elapsed".
And do not forget to go and check if every hotel that you visited and rated well to be still operating and, also, i wish you not to find that they served some of their customers badly, because by your logic you would be responsible for that.
